Chapter 1713 - 485: Qingluan, Long Time No See!

The whole body felt indescribably light.

"Alright, let's leave the Ancient Wilderness Abyss for now."

Lu Changsheng quickly led the four others away from the Ancient Wilderness Abyss.

Along the way, they didn't encounter any trouble.

After leaving the Ancient Wilderness Abyss, Lin Qingluan thought for a moment and said, "I want to visit the former site of the Qingluan Sect."

"Sure."

Lu Changsheng nodded.

That wasn't a difficult task.

Now, the Ancient Secret Realm posed no threat to them.

Thus, the group of five headed confidently towards the Qingluan Sect.

Soon, the five reached the Qingluan Sect.

The Qingluan Sect had originally turned into ruins.

But now it was different.

On the ruins of the Qingluan Sect, clusters of buildings had already reappeared.

And they were almost identical to before.

"This is..."

Lin Qingluan and her three disciples were pleasantly surprised.

The Qingluan Sect has been rebuilt?

But who rebuilt the Qingluan Sect?

"Let's go have a look."

Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

He already had some guesses in his heart.

But he wasn't certain yet.

Now, by going over, they would naturally find out.

Thus, the group of five went directly to the Qingluan Sect.

Soon, the five arrived at the gate of the Qingluan Sect.

However, they saw some cultivators standing outside the Qingluan Sect gate.

But these cultivators' attire wasn't that of Qingluan Sect disciples.

They were cultivators of the Ancient Wilderness Path.

"Why are Ancient Wilderness Path cultivators at the Qingluan Sect?"

Lin Qingluan's gaze was somewhat unfriendly.

She wouldn't forget that although it was the Heavenly Repairing Dao that destroyed the Qingluan Sect gate, it was a decision made by the Four Great Powers collectively.

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch also participated in the siege against her.

Therefore, Lin Qingluan had little goodwill towards the Ancient Wilderness Path cultivators.

Lu Changsheng smiled slightly and said, "I probably understand what's going on, let's go inside directly."

Thus, Lu Changsheng led the five to the gate of the Qingluan Sect.

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, those Ancient Wilderness Path cultivators immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Longevity Great Saint. We are here to rebuild the Qingluan Sect gate under orders and protect the Qingluan Sect gate."

Lu Changsheng nodded, confirming his suspicions.

"Where is the Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch?"

"Inside the Qingluan Sect gate."

Lu Changsheng didn't continue to inquire.

The five entered the Qingluan Sect.

Lin Qingluan and the three disciples felt as if they were seeing yesterday's familiar scenes.

It was indeed rebuilt.

Though there were slight differences from the previous Qingluan Sect.

But it restored over ninety percent.

This Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch indeed had a mind for it.

Soon, the Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch himself came before Lu Changsheng.

Upon seeing Lin Qingluan, he was alarmed, but respectfully greeted, "Greetings, Qingluan Fairy, Longevity Great Saint."

Lin Qingluan said nothing, only coldly looking at the Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch.

Lu Changsheng then asked, "Did you rebuild the Qingluan Sect?"

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch nodded, "Indeed, it was under my orders."

"Did not Longevity Great Saint ask me to find Qingluan Sect disciples? Our Ancient Wilderness Path spread the news across the Ancient Wilderness Continent and indeed found some Qingluan Sect disciples, although not many, there are about thirty, and they are now settled in the Qingluan Sect gate."

"It is based on these Qingluan Sect disciples' recollections that the Qingluan Sect was rebuilt, as an apology to Qingluan Fairy."

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch did so much, even painstakingly rebuilding the Qingluan Sect gate, not easily done, surely at a substantial cost.

What is his purpose?

Isn't it just to survive? To preserve the Ancient Wilderness Path's legacy?

Look at the other three top powers.

Even if Lu Changsheng didn't express it, the Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch automatically acted against the three powers.

The purpose was evident, to ingratiate himself with Lu Changsheng.

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch had exhausted his mind to preserve the Ancient Wilderness Path's legacy.

He now had no desire to become an enemy of Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng's battle had completely shattered his confidence.

"Qingluan, what do you think?"

Lu Changsheng did not speak, but asked Lin Qinglan's opinion.

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch also felt very tense.

He knew, now was the moment his life hung in the balance.

It would only take a word from Lin Qingluan for him to die.

His life or death now depended on Lin Qingluan.

Lin Qingluan took a look at the Qingluan Sect, then at the Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch, and coldly snorted, "You are diligent. However, since you've painstakingly rebuilt the Qingluan Sect gate and reclaimed many Qingluan Sect disciples, I'll spare your life this time."

"Thank you, Qingluan Fairy, and Longevity Great Saint."

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch was overjoyed.

He finally survived.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Lu Changsheng waved his hand.

The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch hurriedly led his people away from the Qingluan Sect gate.

If not necessary, he would never dare come to the Qingluan Sect gate.

In case Lin Qingluan remembered the past, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.

Watching the Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch flee, Lin Qingluan sighed, "The Ancient Wilderness Path Patriarch was a renowned peak Great Saint, and the Ancient Wilderness Path is comparable to a Holy Sect. Yet in front of Changsheng, he didn't dare harbor a thought of resistance..."

Only now did Lin Qingluan seemingly deepen her understanding of the meaning behind the four words "Invincible Great Saint."

"Greetings, Master."

"Greetings, Patriarch."

"Greetings, Sect Master..."

As Lin Qingluan received the remaining cultivators of the Qingluan Sect, every variety of address was heard.
